I've found this issue occurs with Chromium when running 11.04 32-bit and Classic desktop. You can add it to the startup applications and it may - or may not survive a reboot.
Here's how I tested it. I opened the main menu applet, went to Properties and copied over the working settings used to start Chromium. I loaded these into the new launcher section of the Startup Application applet. I closed the applet. I opened the applet again and the Chromium launcher was still there. I rebooted. Chromium would usually start. Subsequent reboots it would not. And the launcher would vanish from the startup applications. Additionally, Chromium would not respond to the request to become the default browser when it asked on startup - but would if set in preferred applications! How can it be a permissions issue if it can survive one reboot but not another? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/523796 Title: Startup list does not save changes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/523796/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
